Connect via MCP

Create an MCP server for Perplexity in the dashboard, then add its URL to your client. This is the Claude Code command; the client guide has the others.

terminal
claude mcp add --transport http perplexity \
  "https://www.prompt-tm.com/mcp/<server id>?user_id=<your user>" \
  --header "x-api-key: ptm_…"

Connect via REST

Run a tool with one request. The response is { data, error, successful, log_id } for every tool.

terminal

  -H "x-api-key: $PROMPT_TM_KEY" -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "user_id": "alice", "arguments": {} }'
